The Hilary and Galen Weston Foundation (HWGF) empowers passionate leaders to build thriving communities and regenerate ecosystems.
The Hilary and Galen Weston Foundation (HWGF) empowers passionate leaders to build thriving communities and regenerate ecosystems, by nurturing innovation and scaling proven solutions to deliver transformative change. The HGWF supports a range of charitable work in: the environment, neurodegenerative diseases of aging research and care, youth opportunity, and humanitarian response. Based on recent strategic planning, approximately 25% of the HGWF’s granting will be dedicated to neuroscience research and to programs supporting people living with dementia, and their caregivers. The HGWF focuses on transforming treatment and care for individuals affected by neurodegenerative diseases of aging. It advances this vision by investing in innovative, high-impact projects that deliver meaningful improvements for individuals living with these conditions and their caregivers. The Hilary and Galen Weston Foundation’s neuroscience team also supports the UK-based Galen and Hilary Weston Foundation and shares information and expertise with the Weston Family Foundation.
